[Dependence of demographic indices on environmental and hygienic factors in Kazakhstan].

The authors demonstrate the hygienic significance of Gompertc-Makeham model, which expresses age-dependent mortality of population, and use both theoretical concepts and statistical data to substantiate a hypothesis of an indicator significance of the model's free coefficient for environmental state evaluation. The model was approved using the data from the regions of Republic Kazakhstan.

[General approach to evaluation, comparison and norm-setting of health risks associated with various environmental factors].

The authors analyze modern approaches to health risk evaluation and establishing safety standards concerning ionizing radiation, chemicals, and other health hazard sources. Some recommendations on general approaches are given. A special individual risk index is offered to make decisions concerning human safety: establishing safety standards and other levels of protection, comparing different health hazard sources, etc. General approach to establishing public and occupational safety standards in terms of this index has been developed.

[Active oxygen forms and genome damage by environmental factors].

The role played by active oxygen forms in damaging the human genome by environmental factors as well as the application of antioxidants to keep the oncology statistics among the hazardous-area residents low are under discussion. According to the independent results, there are essential differences between mechanisms of inflicting a genetic lesion to healthy subjects and to individuals of the risk categories due to that the latter have contacts with high concentrations of chemical compounds and with clinical patients with developed free-radical pathologies.

[Influence of complex plant polyphenol preparation Eklikit on process of liver functions recovery after alcohol intoxication].

The comparative study was carried out to estimate hepatoprotective activity of the preparation "Eklikit", that represents the extract from the Shizandra chinensis crests and reference hepatoprpotector "Legalon" under acute alcohol intoxication. It was found that "Eklikit" posseses membrane protective and expressed hepatoprotective activity. "Eklikit" exceeds the reference hepatorpotector, "Legalon", in its ability to increase the oxidized form of NAD+ and reduced glutatione, cholesterol ethers and reduce the time of thiopental sleep. In other cases "Eklikit" was equally effective to "Legalon".

[The human residential ecology: problems and future prospects].

The article deals with the scientific as well as ecological-and-hygienic foundations of shaping the dwelling environment; it focuses on the real, total loads of the chemical, physical and biological factors experienced by the man under the conditions of the urban residential environment in Moscow. The risk factors, which are present in the residential environment, are investigated alongside with positive factors. A concept of the social-and-hygienic monitoring, which is to be a scientific basis for working out a comprehensive program of the optimization of the population habitation conditions and of ensuring the healthy life mode, is offered. This makes it possible to promote the preventive and current sanitary supervision over the structure and maintenance of living quarters and to ensure a new qualitative level for such supervision involving a quantitative assessment of the whole range of both positive and negative factors of the habitant environment; it is important for determining the housing quality and its safety for the population health.

[Risk assessment of adverse environmental factors affecting the health of the Russian population by the Russian State Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance].

In the article there are adduced the practical aspects of realization of a concept of risk evaluation of the adverse environment factors influencing the health of the Russian population by the State Service of Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance. Epidemiological data on the influence of the most spread free air contaminants is summarized and a matter of monitoring food products safety is considered. There are outlined arrangements for the successful application of the evaluation of risk of the different environment factors influencing the populations health to practical activities of the State Service of Sanitary and Epidemiological Surveillance of Russia.

[Environmental and occupational problems in the utilization of industrial and home waste].

One of the acute hygienic problems of today is handling industrial and consumer wastes stored in Russia in the amount of 30 milliard tons; 30 million of solid garbage and 120 million tons of industrial wastes being formed. There are 4 garbage-handling and 10 garbage disposal plants built in the country. A third of them don't operate now. An absence of the initial selection in garbage collection causes the situation when only 3% of solid garbage is being processed. There is no state unified wastes recycling and utilizing system, no training of personnel to work out special technologies and do this work. Special attention should be given to medical wastes dangerous for the epidemiological situation, since they contain pathogenic microorganisms and helminth eggs; they may as well be contaminated by toxic and radioactive chemicals. A complex solution of the problems of industrial and consumer wastes handling is of vital importance for human health protection and protection of environment.

[Sanitary and technological solutions of the elimination of iodine deficiency by iodination of drinking water].

Comprehensive studies of the sanitary standards provided research evidence for the maximum allowable concentrations of iodine in the drinking water by taking into account its daily allowances dose and the formation of transformation by-products due to iodine disinfection, drinking water preservation, and iodine deficiency prevention in the endemic areas. Techniques of water iodination have been devised and tested in the experimental and industrial setting, including those for packaging drinking water, as well as those by using portable water purifiers based on highly effective iodine-selective adsorptive compounds which make it possible to solve the task of administering iodine dosages into the water (with allowances born in mind), under domestic conditions as well.

[Caries and fluorine: role of water factor, problems and solutions].

The epidemiological studies of the severity and spread of caries of deciduous and permanent teeth in Moscow schoolchildren (n = > 20,000) aged 7-17 years in relation to the content of fluoride in the drinking water, to the use of fluorine-containing tablets and varnishes have provided evidence for the high efficiency of drinking water fluorination for the primary prevention of caries as compared with other preventive alternatives. Based on sanitary studies, two main lines are now under way in solving the problem connected with low dietary fluoride intake: the introduction of routine water-purifying fluorine generators (based on a new technology of fluorination of limited water volumes for drinking and cooking) and the setting-up of plants manufacturing bottled drinking waters containing the optimum or higher fluorine levels for provision of different population groups, primarily children and pregnant women in particular.
